Players to Watch
Nicholas Pooran — MI New York
Pooran is the MI New York captain and their most dangerous batter. He scored 108 not out off 60 balls against Seattle Orcas at Oakland Coliseum in MLC 2025. He knows this ground. He knows how to bat on this surface. At a venue averaging 190 in the first innings his ability to go from 0 to 50 in 20 balls and then keep scoring makes him the highest-ceiling batter in this match. He is the captain pick.
Faf du Plessis — Texas Super Kings
Du Plessis opens the batting for TSK and is their most experienced international batter. He scored 91 before retiring out in MLC 2025 in a dominant performance. He gives TSK their platform in the powerplay. If TSK bat first and du Plessis bats through to 15 or more overs they can post 180 or above. He is the vice captain pick from the TSK side.
Kieron Pollard — MI New York
Pollard bats in the middle order at 5 or 6 for MI New York. His death-overs hitting is one of the most powerful in franchise cricket anywhere in the world. At Oakland where boundaries can be cleared even without perfect timing his presence in the final five overs can add 30 or 40 extra runs to a total.
Keshav Maharaj — Texas Super Kings
Maharaj bowls slow left-arm spin for TSK. At Oakland where spin accounts for 34 percent of all wickets he is TSK’s best bowling option in the middle overs. His accuracy and ability to bowl economically on a flat surface makes him valuable even when the pitch is not helping spinners.
Corbin Bosch — MI New York
Bosch is a right-arm pace all-rounder who bats in the middle order and bowls in the powerplay and death overs. At Oakland where pace takes 66 percent of wickets his bowling is a genuine threat. He also contributes 20 to 25 runs with the bat regularly. He is the differential pick tonight.
Match Prediction
MI New York are favourites. They are the defending champions. They beat Texas 6 days ago in MLC 2026 Match 7. They have won four of their last five matches. Nicholas Pooran scored 108 at Oakland last season. This is a ground they know how to use.
Texas are not without hope. They beat SFU at Oakland in Match 8. Du Plessis is an experienced captain who knows how to post competitive totals. And TSK lead the overall head to head 5-3.
The toss matters. At Oakland batting first wins 70 percent. Whoever wins the toss and bats will be the favourite in this match.
Our prediction: MI New York to win. Their batting depth with Pooran, de Kock, Pollard and Rickelton is too strong for TSK’s bowling attack at a venue where totals regularly cross 190.

Captain: Nicholas Pooran
108 not out off 60 balls at this exact ground in MLC 2025. He is the MI New York captain. He opens or bats at 3. At Oakland averaging 190 in the first innings his ceiling is the highest of any player in this match tonight.
Vice Captain: Faf du Plessis
TSK’s most experienced batter opens the batting and gives Texas their platform. He has scored 91 in a single innings in MLC previously. At Oakland where batters can score freely he is the best pick from the Texas side.
Differential: Corbin Bosch
He bowls pace at a venue where pace takes 66 percent of wickets and bats in the middle order contributing runs regularly. Most fantasy players fill their MINY slots with Pooran, de Kock and Pollard and stop there. Bosch at lower ownership with genuine dual contribution is the best differential choice tonight.
